When electric currents are not allowed to flow, the circuit is called an open circuit. This means that there is a break in the circuit, preventing the flow of electricity from one point to another.
Yes, nerves can be conceptualized as an electric circuit, where the nerve cell body acts as the battery, the axon as the wire transmitting the signal, and the synapse as the connection point to other neurons or muscle cells. The action potential traveling along the nerve can be likened to an electrical impulse moving through a circuit.
A short circuit condition is caused by the grounding of the circuit anywhere from the distribution point to the load of a circuit. This grounding causes a high rush of current because of a low resistance of this type of circuit. This high rush causes the over protection device to trip and interrupt the current flow.
An electrical circuit is a path which electrons from a current source flow. Electric current flows in a closed path called an electric circuit. The point where those electrons enter an electrical circuit is called the "source" of electrons. The point where the electrons leave an electrical circuit is called the "return". The exit point is called the "return" because electrons always end up at the source when they complete the path of an electrical circuit. The part of an electrical circuit that is between the electrons' starting point and the point where they return to the source is called an electrical circuit's "load". ---Nerd
Yes, an electric circuit can be completed without connecting it to earth. The circuit needs a complete path for the current to flow back to the source, so as long as the circuit is properly connected and the electrons can flow through the components, it will work without needing an earth connection.
A point of connection for closing an electric circuit is known as terminal.

The electric potential at a point in a circuit is the amount of electrical potential energy per unit charge at that point. It is measured in volts (V). The electric potential at a point in a circuit can be calculated using the formula V IR, where V is the electric potential, I is the current flowing through the circuit, and R is the resistance of the circuit at that point.
short circuit simply means, when a positive and the negative electric charge collided or met in a certain point.
2 amperes
A short circuit is a low resistance connection established by an accidental touching between a line supply and a grounded object in an electric circuit. The current will flow through the low resistance point, bypassing the rest of the circuit. When this happens the circuits over current device should open the circuit.
Excessive current can be in the connection of many devices into a single socket.this may cause overload in the circuit
point-to-point
tuned circuit
